Geologists from Animuse bring field and instrumental expertise in tectonics and seismic monitoring, sharing decades of collective research into Earth’s internal structure.
The lecture examines how tectonic motions produce earthquakes, how seismic waves travel through the crust and deep interior, and how historical and modern instruments have revealed the planet’s inner layers and dynamic processes. It highlights how seismic records inform models of continental drift and mantle structure, and discusses the historical development of seismometry.
